ON ADDING COMMENTS

Readers are invited to submit comments to any of the posts in the column to the right.

In the spirit of civil discourse, please consider these points adapted from John Stuart Mill’s On Liberty, at the end of Chapter 2, on free speech and fair discussion.

  • A good rebuttal provides an accurate understanding of an opponent’s position.
  • Erroneous views may yet contain a valid point, which should be acknowledged.
  • Personal attacks or other forms of disparagement diminish those who employ them.
  • Because disagreement is no evidence of immorality or poor character, “a collision of adverse opinions” is welcome.

Authors of comments will be asked to provide their email addresses, but these will not be published.
